How do the ratings work? Is this a new feature, I don't remember seeing it prior to our recent upgrade.
I decided to play with it and this is what I did/found:
The three word thread had a rating of 5 stars, I went to the thread and then rated it a 1. The over all rating of the thread dropped down to 4 stars. Does it total up everyone's rating of it and then divide by the number of people to come up with a rating? So in the above example if there was only 1 rating (5) then add my second rating (1), to get 6, divided by 2 (raters) gives it a rating of 3. Since thats not the new rating that it was given I can only assume that perhaps there were other raters as well.
Is there going to be a way to see the statistics for the rating of the thread? How many people rated it, over all rating, highest rating etc?
